vance Posted March 31, 2010 Report Posted March 31, 2010 So I bought an on board charger from Hirks fishing and marine in January and hooked it up to my trolling battery and it did it's thing for 3 months and then quit.The Canadian service is in Burlington so called a few buddies-ROAD TRIP-walked into the service area explained the problem,NO PROBLEM 3 YEAR EXCHANGE WARRANTY- out the door in 10 minutes with a brand new unit :clapping: then we had time to hit every fishing place on the way back to Oshawa.I asked why it would quit and the rep said I have no Idea we have never had one of your model mk106 back for service.Thanks Hirks and Minn Kota.. vance
Billy Bob Posted March 31, 2010 Report Posted March 31, 2010 I had one of Cabela's brand name on-board chargers stop working for no reason after 4.5 years of good service..thought maybe I could get it working again if I could contact the manufacture so I called Cabela's for more info...they said "That's our Charger" send it in...but I said it's over 2 years past warranty...don't matter the phone rep said, we want to take a look at it...so I did but it did cost me over $14 in shipping...2.5 weeks later a BRAND NEW update model was at my door FREE OF CHARGE... About 3 years ago I replace my Minn Kota trolling motor on my front deck...first time out the darn thing ran BACKWARDS...and YES I had the wiring correct...when I got home I triple checked everything out again then called Minn Kota...after a reasonable amount of waiting on the phone I got a lady tech who help me trace the problem down...from the factory (China, Mexico who knows) they had THREE wire crossed on the foot control.....been fine ever since.
